About our bath re-enamelling in Alkborough
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We are often asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Alkborough
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What else we do in Alkborough
What we are called out for in Alkborough
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for these signs:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
